Education and Outreach
Another magical year of Disney Musicals in Schools has begun!
The Smith Center’s Education & Outreach Department welcomed six additional CCSD schools into the program for their DMIS Year One Workshop here at The Smith Center’s Troesh Studio Theater on Sept. 2, 2026 (pictured). Thank you to the educators who joined us for the first time!
Disney Musicals in Schools Program Goals:

🧑🏫 Provide faculty with the training and tools necessary to support student performance and production, and to empower them to do so.

👨👩👧👧 Develop a strong community, including students, parents, faculty, staff and neighbors.
🛠️ Share the wide spectrum of skills that are developed when producing a piece of musical theater, including critical thinking, problem solving, ensemble building, communication, self-confidence and interpersonal skills.
